For those interested, Goodman Games has fired up the campaign for their second Judges Guild Deluxe book - and this time its Caverns of Thracia and Dark Tower (with other goodies thrown in). I made my save agains the first one (which was Tegel Manor, Thieves of Fortress Badabaskor, Citadel of...

Currently, Old School Essentials. Very close to B/X, but better organize and with several of the rough spots smoothed out.

High Adventure Cliffhangers Buck Rogers Adventure Game, a Buck Rogers RPG based on the original comic strips. (Would never happen though due to the ownership of the propert)

125-ish RPG sessions, most of the filled. That’s kind of impressiv.

I’ve had the best luck with meetup.com (Which has usually involved starting up a new “Roleplaying Gamers In {your city here}” group, promoting it in groups for other nearby towns, and then waiting a few weeks.

No D&D here. Champions, Justice Inc (6th ed Hero System), and Savage Worlds. Thinking about starting up another game, and a D&D retro-clone is under consideration, or maybe Fate - depends on which the group chooses.

I think my personal favorite might actually not be Gamma World, but Mutant Future, which is a Gamma World inspired Labyrinth Lord derivative.

That Humanx book was great. I dont play GURPS, but I got a lot of game mileage out of that one.

Btw, you might try here as well: Winston Salem Roleplaying Games (RPGs) Meetup (Winston Salem, NC)

Dang. Just moved away from that area.

I’m in a fuzzy grey area here. I don’t think I’ve ever used that actual phrase, but I’ll flip the question around. I will not accept “it’s what my character would do” as an excuse for being a jerk or deliberately disrupting a game.

Hey, ever find a game? I’d love play something, but would probably be willing to run something as well (long time Hero fan - since ‘85 or so).

Honestly, I rarely have a problem with getting people to play “complex” games. My preferred rules as a GM is Hero System, which is generally considered to be a complex system. The dirty little secret of a well designed complex system though is that most of the complexity tends to be front...

I use Evernote, but it’s not usefully free. It is, however, a great tool. All my notes organized and stored in the cloud so I can access them all from any of my devices.

I’ve never counted, but I am in the process of moving right now so I’ve boxed up the majority of them. Fifteen banker boxes currently contain the bulk of them. (The exception being that I have not yet boxed up most of the Hero System and Call of Cthulhu books as those are the two games I’m...

The phrase “that's what my character would do" is such the red flag for me as, almost without fail, it has nothing to do with roleplay and everything to do with just being an excuse to be a jerk in the game. If that is honestly what your character would do, why is your character working these...

Numenara sounds interesting (being a game I’ve never played). When and where would you be planning? Btw, you might also find some players here: https://www.meetup.com/Winston-Salem-Roleplaying-Games-RPGs-Meetup/

Would you believe I just now discovered your response to this post? I've been to know to play a wide variety of games, not just Champions. (I usually prefer to run Champions of other Hero System game, but that's because I'm lazy and know that system well). JD

We're currently playing Fantasy Hero. You can meet the gang here: http://groups.google.com/group/winston-salem-rpg-group?hl=en

Enworld usually emails me when someone posts a message to the thread - your's got missed. We're still looking (not quite as desperately as we once were, but we're always interested in meeting local gamers). Where do you live? What do you play?
